The output seen while watching a movie

Description of problem:

I had installed Fedora 11 in my laptop, r51(thinkpad). The `lspci | grep "Display controller" is 

00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)

The issue is that I am not able to browse websites like youtube(I had installed adobe flash in my laptop) nor animated websites nor movies in my laptop.

The issue is with the Xorg-X11 Intel video driver. I had changed the kernel option in the grub.conf to 'nomodeset'. At that time I am able to browse the websites like youtube or muziboo.com. But then when i start to play a movie in my laptop, i get logout and then I see the kdm(I think the X gets restarted). I had also followed this link:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F11_bugs#Miscellaneous_problems_with_Intel_graphics_adapters

The section specified in the website for the xorg.conf was added, that didn't worked.
